History shows us
The cruelty that greed and
Avarice can bring
(slave quarters, Kingsley Plantation, Jacksonville, Florida)
###
The mighty live oaks
Tower over us in size,
In age, and beauty
(Hofwyl-Broadfield Plantation, Darien, GA)
###
Sometimes our travel
Tell us more about ourselves
Than the place we go.
(Charleston, South Carolina)
###
Ghosts of tortured lives
Whisper in the old rice fields
Slaves still not at rest
(Cape Romain, SC)
